Economics A commercial 3D printer is purchased for $310,000. The salvage value of the printer decreases by 45% each year that it is held. The cost to operate and maintain the machine the first year it is used is $12,000; these costs increase by $5,500 each year. What is the optimal replacement interval and minimum EUAC for the printer, assuming a MARR of 11% is used? ORI: years EUAC*: $

Can you please show me how to do these parts on excel? I have included the solutions to the parts, but I need to see how it is done with the formulas/equations on Excel, so I can fully understand what is going on. Thank you in advance!
HW#5 Last year your company purchased a used compressor for a gas gathering line system for $55,000. The field manager just called and informed you the machine broke down and needs to be replaced ASAP. You have found a new compressor with a purchase price of $97,830 that you can have delivered to the job site that would meet the necessary service requirements. Assume the new asset would have a zero-salvage value at the end of year 6. The other option is to rent a compressor and eliminate the upfront cost. The rental price will be $2,000 per month for 12 months paid at the beginning of each month. The rental agent informed you the cost is anticipated to escalate 5% at the end of each year. Build a 6-year model accounting for the cost escalation after 12 monthly payments. Based on a Present Worth Cost analysis should you lease or purchase? Confirm your selection by calculating an incremental NPV and ROR analysis. Your company uses a 12.68% effective annual interest rate. If there was a…

ASAP PLZ An industrial plant bought a generator set for P125,000. Other expenses including instalment amounted to P35.000. The generator set is to have a life of 17 years with a salvage value at the end of life of P4,000. In what year did the book value of the generator set equal or almost equal to half of the cost of the equipment, use SYD method. (ENGINEERING ECONOMY)
Kappa Holdings is looking at a new system with an installed cost of $740,000. This cost will be depreciated straight-line to zero over the project's 7-year life, at the end of which the system can be salvaged for $102,000. The system will save the firm $217,000 per year in pretax operating costs, and the system requires an initial investment in net working capital of $69,000, which will be returned at the end of the project. If the tax rate is 22 percent and the discount rate is 9 percent, what is the NPV of this project? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) NPV

The First cost of a passenger bus is ₽800,000. Its estimated life is 4 years with no salvage value. The operating cost per year of 300 days of operation are as follows: Tires, ₽24,000; gasoline, 60 liters per day at ₽15 per liter; Oil,₽80 per day; maintenance and repair, ₽40,000; labor ₽800 per day; miscellaneous expense, ₽18,000; depreciation, sinking fund at 10%. If the average passenger fare is ₽3.50 for each passenger one way and expected profit or return is 15% determine the minimum average number of passengers that should be transported each day. Use the AW method and Future worth method.
IMSE 2710: Engineering Economic Analysis 3. A high-speed electronic assembly machine was purchased two years ago for $50,000. At the present time, it can be sold for $25,000 and replaced by a newer model having a purchase price of $42,500; or it can be kept in service for a maximum of one more year. The new assembly machine, if purchased, has a useful life of not more than two years. The projected resale values and operating and maintenance costs for the challenger and the defender are shown in the accompanying table on a year- by-year basis. If the before-tax MARR is 15%, when should the old assembly machine be replaced? Use the following data table for your analysis. Year Challenger Market O&M Value Costs 0 $42,500 1 Defender Market O&M Value Costs $25,000 1 31,000 $10,000 17,000 $14,000 2 25,000 12,500
